Not surprising given its name, Epic Brewing is going big as beer brewed at its new Denver brewery[2] becomes available to the drinking public.

The award-winning Utah-based brewery on Monday will begin distributing statewide three new beers being brewed exclusively at its new spot in River North – Escape to Colorado IPA, dank and fruity and dry-hopped with Mosaic hops; RiNo Pale Ale, which uses English malts to balance Pacific Northwest hops; and crisp Blue Ski Lager brewed with noble hops.

The beers will be available in 22-ounce bombers and on draft, Epic spokesman Matthew Allred said.

To mark the occasion, Epic is teaming up with more than 20 craft-focused bars, restaurants and liquor stores around town, taking over taps and staging special tastings over the last couple of weeks of July.

“We have worked hard toward this goal for nearly two years and we are so stoked to be part of the Denver and Colorado beer scene,” Epic co-founder David Cole said in a news release. “It is a big, exciting step for us which allows Epic to become part of a great beer state, increase distribution and reach more craft beer drinkers.”

Those waiting for the Epic taproom, which will feature 25 taps, will have to wait a bit longer – it’s planned to open Sept. 28. Epic started planning for a second brewery[14] beyond Utah because of growth demands and the difficulty of expanding in the Beehive State.
